Notes:

14. A hangover effect

I was in agony. It felt like my insides were burning. I tried to force the pain away but it didn’t work. Something stirred in my memory. Another instance of pain, when Alice had bitten me, turning me into what I was. The fire raged on.

I opened my eyes. The bright lights of my room hurt my eyes. I had a strange metallic taste in my mouth. I heard faint noises in the hall, heightened by my senses, and the hurt my head.

“Morning sleepy head” even the quiet voice hurt. I sat up and saw Alec in the corner.

“What time is it?”

“It’s just past ten in the morning. You’ve been screaming for about twenty-four hours. Which isn’t surprising, considering” he got up and moved over to me.

“You’re taller then you were when I last saw you”

“I thought the vampire thing stopped me growing,” I said, wincing at the noise. He noticed. Of course he did, annoying vampires!

“I’m not attacking a human” since I had met the Cullen’s I was loathed to destroy more human life then I had before.

“Aro said he wanted to see you before you were allowed to leave” Alec said as I got up.

“I don’t care, I’m going hunting”

“You weren’t like this when I knew you”

“Things change. I grew up after you left me in the woods. I do what I like, unless I like the person asking me to do something”

“You used to like me”

“Like I said, things change” he looked hurt but I didn’t care. I didn’t know what I had been like before they had abandoned me, but here and now, I did what I pleased. Screw Aro! I stormed out but walked straight into Felix with Aro, and two other men. One I recognized as Marcus.

“Where are you going?”

“Hunting. Then I’m going home” their milky eyes looked at me. I ignored them and glared at Felix. He may have looked after me, but he had abandoned me.

“The venom seems to have had no effect on you”

“I’ve got a hangover. Can you be quiet?” I asked.

“Well, a hangover effect. Now, Cadyna, would you prefer A positive or B negative for breakfast? Assuming, that is what you eat”

“I have to drink blood every week, unless I eat raw meat. Then it takes a month. And, thanks for the offer, but I think I’ll catch my breakfast on the way home” the man I didn’t know stopped me.

“I’m afraid, we can’t let you go anywhere” I broke free of his restraining grip. Alec came out from my room, and he and Felix looked concerned for my safety.
